We are in our room now while DH naps. His Dramamine did a number on him! We are eating at Boma tonight and our son is joining us tonight. The very best thing so far was dining at Be Our Guest!! I'll confess to you, my lovely November friends: I got unexpectedly emotional when we were escorted into the castle. Tears and all. Felt a bit foolish, but there it is. The food was outstanding and I did get the gray stuff!! Yum! We ate there the next day for lunch and loved it too. Oh, and we got our pic with Beast. The weather has been a bit chilly, but today was 76 and lovely. Don't know if anyone is still around this thread, but if so, forgive the long post.

We loved be our guest too! My kids were terrified of the beast, it is one of my favorite pictures my DH and I are all smiles and my kids are just staring at him with the funniest faces. The grey stuff has been on my mind since we left, my DD only let us have a tiny taste each. My DD's birthday party is tomorrow so we have been baking and preparing for that and she thinks we are going to take all of her friends to Disney... She has been asking everyday when we will go back, looks like a trip for next January so her brother gets to have his Disney 3rd birthday too. I hope everyone had a great time on their trips!

We are just back from our trip. Just wanted to say a quick thank you to all on this thread. I appreciate all of your help and support.

We had a great time and have already booked for next year. The weather was great and there were hardly any crowds. My daughter had such a magical birthday. The cast members just made her day!!! There were a few glitches, but we took them in stride. We did have something unique happen while we were there---we had a water pipe break in our room. We switched rooms and all was well. BOG was just yummy and the theming was excellent! I totally agree about needing a break day. That is a must for our next trip!

Hi all!! Welcome home everyone. We just got back thursday. We had a great trip! We ate lots of great food, rode lots of rides and saw many characters. DD2 and I had a blast at MVMCP. It was nice having one on one time with her. The first few day my oldest DS was able to join us and he rode all the roller coasters with DD2. She is now a thrill junkie! Glad to read everyone else had a great time!

So who has their next trip planned already? If so, what do you have planned so far?

Originally we were going to do a trip to Paris next year to celebrate my 30th birthday, but we decided to push that back until our youngest is a little older. We will always take vacation in the 2nd week of November because our schools are closed 3 days for Election Day & the NJ Teacher's Convention, so we're going to try an All-Inclusive Beaches Resort in Jamaica next November and do another big Disney vacation in November 2014... BUT, I can't wait that long to go back!!!!

So, I emailed our travel agent to get prices for a 3-night stay in January 2014 for my middle daughter's 5th birthday. It will be a MK-only trip... maybe one day in HS, but mostly MK, and because of that my H is insisting on a monorail resort. I'm having the trip priced 2 ways - one in a value suite at ASMu and one at the cheapest monorail resort (which I think is the Contemporary).

I'm so excited at the prospect of planning another Disney vacation!!!

We are planning for October 2014. I don't know if I can wait that long but DH has not been bit by the disney bug so I take what I can get. We will probably go for 2 weeks and he will join us for the 2nd week. We stayed at Pop and he wants to try a monorail resort so we will see what happens. DD2 already has a list of things she wants to do when we go back.

So i havent posted in a while. Alot going on. On te first day my 4yo DD got lost in MK for over 45 min &#55357;&#56867;&#55357;&#56866;&#55357;&#56862;&#55357;&#56852; it was horrible. But she was found and was ok other then being extremely upset. I didnt win mom of the year this year for that one oh well. Other then that we had a good trip but im so sick and cant catch up on sleep ugh!

I hope you feel better. My kids caught a cold with a bad cough the last 2 days we were in disney and unfortunately DH was up last night with a sick belly.

H & I booked a long weekend ALONE at Pop! from 1/24-27 for my 30th birthday next month -- time to get planning AGAIN! If I have to turn 30, doing it in Disney World won't be as bad...

It doesn't look like anyone is reporting back here so I guess it's time to say good bye!

Good luck to everyone and thanks for helping me plan a trip that my family will remember forever!

That sounds awesome! I was thinking tonight that it might be cool to surprise my wife with a trip sometime. We kept the secret from the kids but it's easier to fool them. I wondered if I could keep a secret from her (or her and the kids) for that long while I planned a trip?

Thinking about it though, I wonder what fun my wife and I would have going just the two of us with no kids? We usually do a trip to Vegas once a year without the kids but there are a lot of adult things to do there. The kids would never forgive us for going without them!
